Dysregulation of Caveolin-1 (CAV1), a key component of caveolae, leads to pleiotropic disorders; yet, the mechanisms controlling its trafficking remain unclear. Here, we show that the lipid droplet (LD) biogenesis factor seipin controls CAV1 localization. Seipin deficiency in mice and HeLa cells ...
Members of the Omp85 superfamily of outer membrane proteins (OMPs) found in Gram-negative bacteria, mitochondria and chloroplasts are characterized by a distinctive 16-stranded β-barrel transmembrane domain and at least one periplasmic POTRA domain. All previously studied Omp85 proteins promote c...
The PD-1/PD-L1 axis represents a cornerstone of cancer immunotherapy, yet the dynamic shuttling of PD-L1 between endosomal recycling and lysosomal degradation routes limits durable responses. Using a CRISPR screen targeting glycosphingolipid metabolism, we identify TM9SF2 as a key regulator of PD...
